BACKGROUND Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to a transmission method in a wirelesscommunication system supporting multiple numerologies, and particularlyto a method and a device for synchronization signal transmission.

Related Art

The application scenarios of future wireless communication system areincreasingly diversified, and different application scenarios imposedifferent performance requirements on the system. In order to meetdifferent performance requirements of various application scenarios, at3rd Generation Partner Project (3GPP) Radio Access Network (RAN) #72plenary meeting, it was decided to conduct a study on the new airinterface technology (NR, New Radio).

In order to adapt to a variety of different application scenariosflexibly, future wireless communication systems, especially NR, will beable to support multiple numerologies, which refer to a variety ofsubcarrier spacings, a variety of symbol time lengths, a variety ofCyclic Prefix (CP) lengths and so on. At RANI #86bis, a WorkingAssumption (WA) that supports to adopt frequency division multiplexing(FDM) of multiple numerologies with nested structure was reached. Thenested structure requires boundary alignment of physical resource blocks(PRB, Physical Resource Block) of different numerologies in frequencydomain. This multiplexing method can avoid resource fragmentation to thelargest extent.

SUMMARY

In a wireless communication system, UE needs to detect a base stationand synchronize with the base station with respect to both time andfrequency before the subsequent operations can be carried out. This kindof signal detection and time and frequency synchronization are allaccomplished based on synchronization signals. According to differentdesigns, the synchronization signals can also be used to indicate cellIDs, TRP (Transmission Reception Point) IDs, antenna port IDs, beam IDs,FDD/TDD differentiation, and subframe/radio frame timing, and so on.

In the process of initial cell search in the network, the user equipmentneeds to perform initial detection of the synchronization signals at allpossible frequency points. In LTE, channel raster is predefined to limitthe center frequency of a carrier at the network side and to limit thesearching frequency points (usually the center frequency of thesynchronization signals) by a user equipment during initialsynchronization, the center frequency point of the carrier and thecenter frequency point of the synchronization signals both meet thechannel raster of 100 kHz, that is, within the allocated frequency band,the center frequency point of the carrier is the same as the centerfrequency point of the synchronization signals, and is apart from thelowest boundary of the frequency band by an integer multiple of 100 kHz.However, this raster definition of LTE is not applicable for NR for thefollowing reasons.

NR supports a wider carrier bandwidth and frequency band bandwidth, andif the searching raster of 100 kHz is used, the complexity and delay ofthe initial synchronization will be greatly increased.

The introduction of multiple numerologies may result in the inability tokeep the center frequency of the carrier consistent with the centerfrequency of synchronization signals.

For UE with different capabilities, especially RF capabilities, not alluser equipment need to support the entire carrier bandwidth, nor need toknow the central frequency of the carrier. This also makes it possibleto support different a carrier center frequency point from thesynchronization signal center frequency.

The present disclosure provides a design solution to the problem offrequency configuration of NR downlink carriers and synchronizationsignals as described above. With the solution of the present disclosure,the center frequency of the carrier and the center frequency of thesynchronization signals can be configured independently, but meanwhilemeeting the requirements of frequency division multiplexing (FDM) withmultiple numerologies based on the nested structure. Another advantageof the design of the present disclosure is that the center frequency ofthe carrier and the center frequency of the synchronization signals canbe finely adjusted to achieve a tradeoff among synchronizationperformance, synchronization complexity, and flexibility of networkdeployment by jointly considering various aspects. It should be notedthat, in case of no conflict, the features in the embodiments andembodiments in the UE of the present disclosure can be applied to thebase station, and vice versa. The features of the embodiments and theembodiments of the present disclosure may be combined with each otherarbitrarily without conflict.
